Long Beach Update

As of 9:13 a.m. today, power has been restored to all customers in Long Beach, however some customers who have been on generator power may experience temporary outages as we connect them to the network as safely as possible.

We thank customers for their patience as we work to restore them to the network as safely and efficiently as possible. We encourage customers in Long Beach to make every effort to conserve use of electricity as we continue to return the system to its full operational capacity.

We have opened our distribution center at 925 Locust at 8 a.m. today to distribute food, ice and water. The safety of the public and our crews remain our highest priority. We thank the city of Long Beach for its cooperation and for the especially important safety efforts of first responders in the Long Beach Fire and Police departments. Get the latest update >

Supplier Diversity and Development

Our Commitment

Our commitment to providing opportunities for small and diverse firms remains stronger than ever. In 2014, 45% or $1.7 billion, of our total purchases was from women, minority, and service-disabled veteran (WMDVBE’s) owned businesses.

Supplier Development Through EDGE

EDGE (Entrepreneurial Development, Growth and Education) is a supplier development program designed to serve businesses ranging in size from microenterprises to large firms. The program’s mission is to provide comprehensive developmental experience through mentoring, networking, partnerships and training.

DBE Subcontracting (Tier 2) Program

We encourage our prime suppliers (DBE and non-DBE) to follow our lead and adopt their own formal initiatives towards diversity and inclusion. We also encourage them to partner with diverse businesses through subcontracting arrangements and participation in our Diverse Business Enterprise (DBE) Subcontracting (Tier 2) Program. In 2011, our prime suppliers reported $428.2 million in DBE subcontracting spend.

If you are a prime supplier and received notification, please report your DBE Subcontracting (Tier 2) spend into the SCE DBE Subcontracting Portal. For more details click here.

Our goal is to provide information about our upcoming opportunities in order to build a supplier base that represents the diversity of the communities we serve. Upcoming opportunities with us are listed in italics in the Category Management list.

Capability Overview Meetings

An important part of our Supplier Diversity Program is to connect diverse business enterprises with internal decision makers. Our Supplier Diversity & Development team hosts Capability Overview Meetings with aspiring, qualified suppliers and our Supply Operation and other key SCE business organization personnel. These meetings provide suppliers with the opportunity to present their company's business plan, experience, qualifications, and credentials to the people responsible for procuring materials and services. In the process, suppliers get a better understanding of our business and upcoming procurement opportunities.
